Country: SE/DE

DJ and producer KABLAM (aka Kajsa Blom) was born by the Swedish west coast and moved to Berlin in 2012. She started her career as a DJ, as one of the residents of Berlin’s Janus party alongside co-residents Lotic and M.E.S.H. Janus is now a label and has held parties at Berghain and booked producers and DJs Arca, DJ Hvad, Total Freedom, Nigga Fox and more.

Blom’s style, in keeping with her Janus peers, experiments with the radical possibilities of music, of what a club environment is or can be and of what a dance floor looks and feels like. As a DJ, she manipulates digital tracks, taking advantage of the advanced possibilities offered by CDJs. She likes to play and mix contrasting genres, finding imaginative points of entry and combinations between them, using the parameters of space rather than time to structure the music.

As a producer Blom has so far released tracks and edits unofficially on her Soundcloud. She is affiliated with the Stockholm-based label Staycore and has collaborated with and made a remix for one of its originators, Dinamarca. Blom is currently residing in Stockholm where she is working on her first official release, scheduled for mid-2016.

Mixmag named her one of ”16 artists who will make your year in 2016” and The Fader named her one of ”20 musicians you need to know about in 2016” .
